I kinda like these hypotheticals because they do stimulate thought and make one wonder what if. My creative mind just goes then....... and soon I'm wearing tinfoil hats, swearing the tv talks to me, and drinking Nyquil to keep alert.

What's that, Nurse Cratchit?........ I already took my dose of thorazine today.

You don't understand.

Just because Congress SAYS it overturned the SC doesn't make it so.

What matters is what the CONSTITUTION says and they Constitution says that the SC has the power to determine if laws passed by Congress are in keeping with it.
